Birdi and Rutt

Seth Rutt and Harbinder Singh Birdi run a team of ten architects in their capacity as associates at Hawkins\Brown. Rutt studied architecture at Leeds Metropolitan University and Singh Birdi studied at Manchester School of Architecture and spent time practicing in India before joining  Hawkins\Brown. Rutt worked on the Sheep Field Barn Gallery for the Henry Moore Foundation and later worked on further projects for the same client.

Harbinder is currently supervising the New Art Exchange project in Nottingham and a number of residential schemes in London and the North East. They are working together on the transformation of the Grade II* listed Park Hill flats in Sheffield, in association with Urban Splash. The Roald Dahl Museum and the New Art Exchange represent the latest in a series of arts buildings developed in association with practice director David Bickle where various themes of a crafted architecture are beginning to emerge.
